The trailer kicks things off at a Hollywood party where Brad Pitt’s character Jack Conrad says, ” I think what we have here in Hollywood is high art, it’s … ” and then is immediately interrupted by Margot Robbie’s character Nellie LaRoy screaming, “Party Time!” holding sparklers while wearing overalls and being carried on the back of a man in his underwear surrounded by several more with the same attire. From there, the entire thing kicks into high gear with shots of outrageous Tinseltown Soirees, massive on-location film productions, and a slew of remarkable characters introduced, all traversing the highs and lows of stardom back when it all began. The entire cinematic endeavor teased in the captivating promo is arguably the most ambitious project Robbie or director Damian Chazelle has ever embarked upon.
The Academy Award-winning director has pulled off some epic endeavors during his career, such as a highway dance sequence in “La La Land” and the first mission to the moon in “First Man,” but all of that pales in comparison to the production of “Babylon,” according to Chazelle. “It was definitely the hardest thing I’ve done,” the award-winning auteur told Vanity Fair. “Just the logistics of it, the number of characters, the scale of the set pieces, the span of time that the movie charts — it all conspired to make it particularly challenging, but it was a challenge that was pretty exciting to take on.”

And from the looks of the well-crafted trailer, fans of Margot Robbie should not sleep on “Babylon” nor let it become part of the list of films that the actress has done that some people have never heard of or seen.
